NAME
        du - estimate file space usage
 
SYNOPSIS
        du [OPTION]... [FILE]...
 
DESCRIPTION
        Summarize  disk usage of each FILE, recursively for direc­
        tories.
 
        -a, --all
               write counts for all files, not just directories
 
        --block-size=SIZE use SIZE-byte blocks
 
        -b, --bytes
               print size in bytes
 
        -c, --total
               produce a grand total
 
        -D, --dereference-args
               dereference PATHs when symbolic link
 
        -h, --human-readable
               print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K 234M
               2G)
 
        -H, --si
               likewise, but use powers of 1000 not 1024
 
        -k, --kilobytes
               like --block-size=1024
 
        -l, --count-links
               count sizes many times if hard linked
 
        -L, --dereference
               dereference all symbolic links
 
        -m, --megabytes
               like --block-size=1048576
 
        -S, --separate-dirs
               do not include size of subdirectories
 
        -s, --summarize
               display only a total for each argument
 
        -x, --one-file-system
               skip directories on different filesystems
 
        -X FILE, --exclude-from=FILE
               Exclude files that match any pattern in FILE.
 
        --exclude=PAT
               Exclude files that match PAT.
 
        --max-depth=N
               print  the  total  for  a  directory (or file, with
               --all) only if it is N or fewer  levels  below  the
               command  line  argument;  --max-depth=0 is the same
               as --summarize
 
        --help display this help and exit
